Dear Chris and Agniezska,

Thank you so much for everything you did to make our wedding celebration so special. From the first time we heard you in recital, and throughout our wedding and reception, the music you performed together will always be among the most memorable moments of the day we brought our lives together.

You are consummate professionals. Your attention to detail, versatility, and musical talent are substantial. Your passion for music and the emotion it captures is readily apparent.

To paraphrase what Louis Nizer once said, "Those who work with their hands are laborers. Those who work with their hands and their minds are craftsmen. Those who work with their hands, their minds, and their hearts are artists." In the way in which you combine your hands, minds, and hearts to create the musical wonderment that you do, you are truly artists, and are a gift to all who hear you play.

Dear Chris,
I wanted to take this opportunity to formally thank you for providing such beautiful music for Esther and Adam Starr's wedding ceremony on May 3rd in Scranton. I know that the load-in and performance timing was a bit unusual, but you handled it perfectly and as a result the ceremony ran smoothly and on schedule. Both my clients and I were delighted with the result! I will most certainly recommend you to my colleagues in the area and look forward to the next time that you and I can work together. Please feel free to pass my name on to any prospective clients who require a reference.
